Should have a 12 mm allen key lying around somewhere to do a trial fit :D
-

so it fits in a battery drill for ultimate labour saving 8)

The first real fitment of the new wheels is a success :D
Just need to get the tyres sorted and away we go.

I've just spent the last couple of hours sorting out bits of the interior and fitting some foot well lights, turned out to be a nightmare for some reason with slipped wires and having to re wire and what not.
I took all the carbon vinyl off and re did it so it's all matching now and all the blemishes have gone. Also managed to get the gear gaiter sitting a little snugger in it's place.
You can see the lights in the passenger footwell at the moment but I'll sort it out soon so only the glow will be visible.

Another day and I decided to take on the removal of the front drivers wing. Needless to say, I won.
But I won't say it was easy, it involved quite a lot of violence and swearing and yet more violence, here's the old wing to give you a clue.
And here it is, possibly the straightest bit of bodywork on my car, everrrrr!
it also helped sit the bumper a little nicer too
and whilst the bumper was off and the wires to the spots were exposed I wired up some under glow lights (here's a snippet, will have to wait for more darkness to see them better)

Beautiful ain't it :lol: I should get a passenger wing in blue and bumpers in some other MX3 colours :lol:
I could become a swatch for the MX3, "available in all these colours"
Or possibly until I get a respray I could do the rising sun on the wing :twisted:

Hmm, keep watching over the next few months people, somethings happening, something funny and strange and weird (what would you expect from old Stalky eh?).
-
Oi mate, what's that front splitter from..?
-
Seat Leon Cupra
Eunos bud.

Took some time to attack one of the wheels, readying it for refurbishing and a new colour.
I am lucky to have 5 of these wheels so decided if I don't like what I'm going to do then at least the other 4 can stay as they are, this particular wheel was silver whereas the others are anthracite, so it would have been getting attacked anyway.
-
So then, erm

bonnet looks in good condition

It is bud, only a few marks and a little dint on it but spot on for a tenner :D

Okay, these next set of pictures are for you DJMarco.
Wheels all primed up and ready for…..
Yup, white, not just your run of the mill white, but satin white (yes, that is going to be fun to keep clean isn't it :lol: )
Overspray is not an issue as the tyres need replacing anyway :)
